hmm... something strange has happend now with my skin simple, if you look at the volume/balance and progress bar, there is supposed to be a black line under the sliderbutton, and I can't move the balance or volume slider :S Other than that I haven't found any bugs

Hmm, yes you are correct, I will check this out tonight when I return home.

Thanks!

svst or save_state doesnt seem to work?
put it on the bgcolor of gbx on each layer but it doesnt seem to remember the colour saved

also progress sliderbit sometimes moves to the right by 1/2 pixels on different tracks on a vertical progress line, seems kind of random

about box still shows 59 as build, perhaps an autoincrementer value for that too?

I was expecting actual cbuttons on the pl, this would make a bit more sense gui & functional wise

tt not working for tooltip short keyword

It's possible that the state wasn't getting changed. I'm just updating the build again to ensure its build 60, but to test, change a setting, then exit Xion and start it again.

also progress sliderbit sometimes moves to the right by 1/2 pixels on different tracks on a vertical progress line, seems kind of random

This will most likely happen if it can't divide the width/height perfectly in 2

Fixed now. I havn't had a chance to make it auto increment, but will look into it when I get some time.

Oh, right. Yeah I think everyone was happy to move away from that, so that they could resize the playlist smaller in the end?

tt not working for tooltip short keyword

Will have to investigate this for the next build.

New Build should be up, if you want to redownload it (Same url. If you have caching turned on, you may have to clear your internet cache)

might want to put a note on the progress bars of best widths/heights in even numbers on the layer ref chart, ill check my width on that one tho, cant remember how wide i made it
you kno most of us like pixel perfect in most cases Cliff heheh

yea did that and also reloaded skin/other skins

Hmm ok, what layer did you put the keyword on? It won't work if you put it on a layer set, but will work if you put it on the layer that you want the visibility saved on. So if for example you are turning on and off a layer that is the shadow layer, you add it to the shadow layer and it should keep track of it.

Fixed, you will find the fix in build 61.

build 60
not going too far with the savestate until its working as i think it should

i put in svst on all my bg colour layers in the animlayerset so that when the button is pressed to cycle thru the colours the save_state/svst should kick in on any of those layers
it does work when you close Xion and reopen or even choose another skin and then go back to that previous skin, however it seems to bork the cycle up completely to the point of it not working thru the cycle anymore
it only ever shows the layer that was last saved, it seems to cycle thru the layers but doesnt show them except for the layer saved and the next layer(which doesnt show but hides the saved layer)

it will work for single layers it seems but not for layers set in an animation set so that it truly is configurable
hope that can be worked in as the workaround you posted to use for cycling layers is going to be used throughout peoples skins in time to come to offer more to the end user

tooltips
still not working with tt(x)

also Xion still bombs out on hover over when custom buttons hovered over in quick succession
could it be the fadetime calls that is causing it to error?
